Career[edit]

Club[edit]

Born in Olsztyn, Gikiewicz is youth exponent of Warmia Olsztyn. In March 2009, he moved to Polonia Bytom on two-and-a-half-year contract from Unia Janikowo.[1] In August 2009, he moved to ŁKS Łódź on a one-year deal.[2] In the summer 2010, he joined Śląsk Wrocław on a four-year contract deal.[3] On 27 June 2013, he signed a contract with Cypriot side Omonia.[4]

In March 2014, Gikiewicz signed for Kazakhstan Premier League side FC Tobol.[5]

After spells at Cypriot football clubs Omonia and AEL Limassol, Gikiewicz signed a one-and-a-half-year deal with Levski Sofia in February 2015. On 27 February 2015, he scored on his official A PFG debut, an 8–0 home rout against Haskovo.[6] In April 2015, he was frozen out of the first team after a conflict with manager Stoycho Stoev.[7]

On 5 August 2019, Gikiewicz made his debut for Romanian side FCSB in a 1–2 loss away from home against Astra Giurgiu.

On 21 August 2021, Gikiewicz joined Indian Super League side Chennaiyin on a one-year deal.[8][9]

On 16 March 2023, he returned to Poland to join regional league club Szturm Junikowo Poznań.[10] Soon after Szturm started experiencing financial difficulties, with players reporting not receiving payments in a timely manner. In the midst of that, Gikiewicz left the club in order to join IV liga side KTS Weszło.[11]
